Hi guys, me and a concept artist friend are working on Team Fortress 2 weapon and hat models to submit to Valve. Here is the weapon I modeled for the Medic. http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/7606/higherres.png This is the concept art: http://img545.imageshack.us/img545/3043/conceptr.jpg Thing is, it's a lot of work as you…
The issue is that the low poly is only one part of making a model. You keep saying you're going to apply a normal map but I haven't seen you post a model with a normal map applied. How are you making the normal map? I don't think you're making a subdivided high poly and baking it which is the workflow most games use. You…
@ Meloncov, Joltzero, luge, David3D.The I know you can do pretty much everything in Maya that you can do in Max, but the main reason for shifting towards Max is that the majority of studios around here like Ubisoft and Rockstar use 3DS Max and require it for their art test submissions despite our graduates using Maya, so…
ok so i just found out the new sandybridge processors don't support tripple channel ram. no big deal! so i've modified my likely setup to this: CPU: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=CP-359-IN MOBO: http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=MB-432-AS RAM:…
Looking good man. Simple. Straight to your best work. Best work being the Starship Control Room. Nothing that hasn't been done before, but you should definitely send your portfolio to Bioware, Bungie, 343 etc. if Sci-Fi is where you feel comfortable. I would toss your Medieval Art Set piece. It's not needed. Also, consider…
Ok thanks very much guys, i tried opening the model with blender using SMD tools but for some reason it didnt work, but plant has shown me all I need thanks :) , also didnt know you could split the revenue precisley I thought it was just if there are 1 creator he gets 100% if 2 each gets 50% and so on. Also while I got…
The box guy reminds me of Faust from GGXX, but damn that idle anim is on par with SF3:3S quality wise. Are you coding the engine yourself or using Mugen? I'd LOVE to playtest for you as fighting games are my fave genre. Anyway, I know you want to do a sprite based game, but have you seen Chaos Breakers by Taito? It's using…
I would have to argue against the "many small releases" statement, as it is not always appropriate. Constantly throwing out the latest .034 Alpha build with two new lines of code and an additional player model is something that a serious mod should leave inside the team. The main guidelines were catered towards teams that…
The lighting is coming along. Hopefully, like you mentioned you will have time to add in the story. The piece would have been better served if the story came first so it could be better unified into the overall design of the city. Possibly have vehicles crashed off to the side. Ash residue permeating the air like show…
@ acapulco: Thank you! I started a render, going to try it it! =D @ quero: Its something friends suggested doing, helps keep them feeling alive xD. Thanks a lot for the kind words! @ AimBiZ: I use a .5mm mechanical pencil at HB hardness, any softer and i break more lead than I use xD. I use humble 8.5 x 11 paper, so i can…
